NORTH JoKAI, the Hungarian novel
list, has written letter to his friends in
which he declines with thanks the eel
ebration which they were arranging
for him this month in honor of the fifth
eth anniversary of his debut as a poet.
He informs them that fifty years ago
he was lad of II. busy studying Latin,
and that if he had shown any DISPOSE
ton at that time to write poetry. his
teacher would have soon knocked that
nonsense out of him The proper date
for the intended celebration, he sug-
gests, is 1892.

NJ RnitOba.

The province of Manitoba has lately
had census taken. In 1888 the popu-
lation was estimated vt 2O3, ,142 by the
government, and the figures of 1884,
by estimate, were upwards of 24S,OOO.
The results Of the census are therefore
somewhat humiliating to the pride Of
our neighbors across the line. The
actual population is only 1OS,64O. And
yet boundaries have been considerably
extended within three or four years,
and constant efforts have been made
to secure immigration, under q very
liberal land system. The province is Of
vast extent, and has resources, agri-
cultural and otherwise, of great value.
Unfortunately it is on tho wrong side
nesota, Dakota and Montana have
added fully one million people to
their aggregate population, Manitoba
has not added fifty Thousand. The
population was 65,954 more than six
years ago, and the increase has been
only about 1000 year since that
time. the city Of Winnipeg claiming
full third OF the growth.
In view OF the smallness Of the pres
ent population, the railroad enterprises
recently projected by the provincial
government seem not little formida-
Bile. The road to Hudson's Bay and
the proposed lines to the Northern Pa.
cific will draw very heavily upon the
resources of n frontier province which
has only % hundred thousand people
and which has little outside backing
for its enterprises, while it has to meet
the determined hostility of the
&C. +. r." syndicate and
the powers-that-bc ut Ottawa.
But Manitoba has indomitablc
pluck. II the imaginary line which
separates it from the United States
were removed, if it were released from
subjection to the stupid and tyranni-
cal government of the Dominion, il it
could become politically an integral
part OF America" and could
trade freely with Fargo,
Duluth and Minneapolis, it would
develop rapidly and magnificently.
There is no lack Of energy and public
spirit in the province, but progress has
to be made against frigh.ful odds

The Coffee Market.

NEW YORK, May 13.-Thc rampant
speculation Of the coffee market which
has been in progress the week
past is exposing the younger mem
bers OF the Exchange to II good deal of
wear and tear. The excitement in
Rio and Santos within the past day or
two has cqual,d anything ever wit
messed in the wheat pit at the Produce
Exchange or at tie Broadway Mining
Board. Long after the gong sounded
for closing group Of half crazy spec
ulators blocked up the sidewalk in
front and continued their operations
while shouting themselves hoarse.
Strangers passing that way supposed ii
riot was in progress and wondered
why the police did not interfere.

WASHINGTON, May 5.
Irode yesterday past the new Garfield statue,
which now stands on It's PEDESTAL below the
great Capitol building. 1t is wrapped around,
however, with black bunting, and this, with
a rope tied around the neck, makes 1t look like
the figure of q woman ready to be hanged. The
carpenters are busy making platforms for the
memorial celebration, and tho sound OF the
hammer dins In your ears as you go by. The
statue is ono of the BEST located OF the many
at the capital It stands at tho edge OF the
Capitol grounds and next to the big Botan
ical gardens, Just where the crowd must
always pass on its way TO congress. 1t faces
the city, and it represents Garfield holding
manuscript in one hand and in the attitude Of
addressing the people The pedestal IL OF
granite, and the crown OF the statue Is nearly
forty feet above the ground The statue itself
IL ten feet and half in size, and 1t has cost,
all told, about t6500O. The figures on the
base are In q sitting or recunbent posture,
and they represent the three types Of manhood
depicted in Garfelds career, namely, the
student, the warrior and the statesman.
Above these figures are tablets in the form of
shield on which rests globe for the
student a trumpet aud sword for the soldier,
and n laurel wreath inclosing the scales Of

dedicated In 1875 and Fred Douglass was the
orator Of the occasion.
ssv
The material Of many Of these statues has
played an important part In history. The
statue of Gen. Scott Is made of cannon, which
were captured during the Mexican war; that
Of Farragut, Of metal taken from the bronze
propeller Of Farraguts flagship, the Hart
ford, and that Of Andrew Jackson was cast
from brass cannon and mortars which were
captured during Jackson's campaigns.
-
In view Of the fuss regarding the selection
of the orator for the Garfield statue 1t Is in
teresting to look at tho ceremony OF these
statues OF the past. This Jackson statue was
unveiled In 1858, when the Hon. Stephen A.
Douglas delivered the oration; Farraguts
statue was celebrated by speeches by Horace
Maynard, OF Tennessee, and Senator ID. w.
voorhees,, of Indiana. John A. Logan de-
livered the Grafton at the unveiling OF the
statue Of Gen. MCPHERSON, and Secretary OK
State Bayard WAS the orator at that OF Ad-
miral Dupont 80
There are a number Of bronze and marble
busts In Washington which ono never sees
mentioned in the papers, In the library OK
the White House there Is q bronze head OF
Washington from Houdons plaster cast--the
cast which was said by Lafayette to be
tho most accurate representation or the
Father OF our Country. 1t looks much like
the face Of the marble statue OF Washington
which stands In the capitol at Richmond, aud
IL represents him with a forehead moro
rsceding than those Of Stuarts portraits.
In the state department there Is another
bronze head OF Washington, and there
Is Q bronze head OF Abraham Lin
coin In ono OF the corridors OF the senate.
John Quincy Adams marble face looks down
upon you from the wall of the houss commit
tee room In which he died, and the Corcoran
gallery contains number Of rare pieces OF
bronze and marble Here you may see
Powers Greek Slave, as beautiful now as
when II was carried around the country and
exhibited to tens Of thousands at so much per

in which stand white marble statues seven
feet high, OF the greatest artists. These are
being made by Ezkiel, OF Rome, and those
already here represent Phidias, Michael An
gelo, Raphael, Titan and Lonardi Davanci
Within the gallery there Is also one OF the
best creations of Rinehart In Clytie, and near
Thorwaldson. Here are also numbers of
other noted works in marble. and plaster
casts of the most noted specimens of sculp'
ture of the past. Washington is fast becom-
ing an art center, and the day will come
when we will have some Of the most beauti.
rul statues in the world and good representa-.
tions OF all the others.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE exer-
cises OF the meeting OF the society OF
the Army of the Cumberland this
evening was held in the Congregation
nj church, which was completely filled.
The auditorium was beautifully decor
ated with bunting, corps badges,
cannon and muskets. At the back OF
the stand was an immense red, white
and blue rosette, in the center OF
which was u star of the Army OF the
Cumberland, hanked by portraits
framed in mourning of Gems. Thomas
and Garfield. Connecting the roselte
at the back of the stand with the
colors against the walls OF the church
were huge flags drawn in festoons
with pendant streamers inscribed,
"Fort Donelson," "Corinth," "Stone
River" "Chickan,auga," missionary
RIDGE" and the names OF other battles
in which the Army Of the Cum6er-
land participated. General Sheridan,
president OF the society, was seated on
the platform with Senator Sherman,
Generals Cist, Fullerton, Rosecrans,
Barnett, Robinson, Morgan, Park
hurst, Reynolds, Whipple and others.
General Sherman arrived just before
the exercises began and was greeted
with tremendous applause as he
walked upthe steps leading to the stand
while General Sheridan sprang for
ward and warmly welcomed him to q
seat. An ovation was also rendered
Governor Curtin as he subsequently
assembled tho platform. The cere-
monies of the evening opened by
General Albert Ordway, chairman of
the local committee, making brief
welcoming address. Rev. G. M. Pine,
late of the sixth infantry, offered
prayer. District Commissioner X. b.
Webb, on behalf of the people of the
district, welcomed the society to
Washington. Whenever the speaker
referred to Generals Sherman, Thomas
and Garfield, he was interrupted with
applause. General Phil Sheridan was
greeted with hearty outburst of hand
clapping and cheers rs he rose to re-
sponded to the address of welcome. He
said: at gives me great pleasure to
thank the commissioner and citizens
OF Washington for the kindly and
warm welcome they have given us to-
night know in the course of our
own proceedings we will in u formal
way return thanks, but wish to ex-
press my own appreciation of their
kindness" Col. Henry Duffield, ora
tor of the meeting, was then intro
duced by General Sheridan as lone of
our old Army of the Cumberland
soldiers" and he proceeded to deliver
the annual address. His admission to
notable union generals and his refer
ences to the capture of the arch trail
tor jeff. Davis were heartily applauded.
Enlivening music followed the oration.
When the music concluded General
Sherman stepped forward at General
Sheridan's invitation and INDUCED in
a few wieryreminisences General Rose
Grams, "Old Rosey" as dubbed by his
friends on the platform, was next in
troduced and warmly received. He re-
viewed briefly the salient points of his
career in the Army of the Cumber-
land, taking occasion to correct what
he assumed to be some erroneous
statements OF recent publications
touching the campaigns of the army,
and referring to General Thomas as
"Chavelier, sans peur ct sans re-
proche." The cermonies closed with
music and prayer by Rev. +. ID. Dan
iels. The members left the church to
attend a symposium in neighboring
hall.

Trottiug Association.

CHICAGO, May 12.--Tho board OF
review of tho National Trotting asso'
citation, at their session this morning,
heard evidence in thirty-nine disputed
cases out of fifty they had on hand,
Mr.. M. M. Morse, the gentleman
named to succeed Thos. j. Vail, as
secretary, had not up to the noon
hour notified the board whether he
would accept or decline the position
President Grant said that Mr.. Moore
was expected TO appear in person be-
fore the board during the day. The
resignation OF Secretary Vail, and the
effect, immediate or remote, which
il will have Oh the status OF the
rival American and National Trotting
associations is the subject OF much de-
bate among horsemen. Mr.. smith, a
prominent horseman OF Earlville, ILL.,,
said on the question: "The American
association people say they have come
TO stay, Vail or no Vail. They have
good many associations with them.
and there will be a struggle Tor lie
which will result in the survival OF the
fittest. 1 think, though, that quite
number of the tracks that withdrew
will come back"
J. McM. Shafter, OF San Francisco,
said "The members of the Ameri-
can association went out solely, 80
they claimed, on account OF Mr.. Vail,
and now that he is out, they have no
excuse for not returning. Notwith-
nding they say they lett on account
of Vail, I think that was not the
only reason. There were other causes
that sent them out, and whether they
will come back or not will show wheth-
er Vail is to blame for it all.
